Re: What changes need to be made?
New DB coach will be Jeff Burris who was at Notre Dame last year as a Defensive Analyst. Also played there and was a All-American and 1st round draft pick. Played 10 years in the League. Spent time with the Miami Dolphins as a assistant Defensive Backs coach.

Re: What changes need to be made?
I like that hire. He's got NFL clout and sounds like the kids at ND really liked him as a mentor. Would take a few more like that.Originally posted by Laurencenim2 View PostNew DB coach will be Jeff Burris who was at Notre Dame last year as a Defensive Analyst.

The apparent new OL coach has an NFL playing background too. That trend may not be coincidence, and could be Farley's way of adding to UNI's sales pitch to future recruits.

Re: What changes need to be made?
When you've got 2 NFL MVPs, a hall of famer, and a future all everything that have come out of your program you should sell it like a mother, whether you had much to do with it or not. There are very few FBS schools, let alone FCS, that have produced that much NFL success.GO PANTHERS!

Re: What changes need to be made?
Sure, you should sell that. However, the angle is more "I know what it takes to get you (Mr Recruit) to the NFL", not "look who we produced". Like it or not, a good sized chunk of the guys we're recruiting have NFL aspirations, realistic or not.Originally posted by GonzoCat View PostWhen you've got 2 NFL MVPs, a hall of famer, and a future all everything that have come out of your program you should sell it like a mother, whether you had much to do with it or not.

Re: What changes need to be made?
One thing to keep in mind is that the NCAA has allowed FBS schools to add an additional paid coach, effective this year. That's 120 extra coaching positions at the FBS level which may pull coaches from FCS schools as well as other levels. The food chain may eat up FCS coaching staffs going forward and it may be the norm for FCS to lose a few staff members that want to coach at a higher level.
It'll be interesting how this pans out for us."Give a cheer Ho, the purple and the gold!!"

Would this be viewed as a positive for NDSU? There has been a bunch of not so positive chatter regarding Messingham, especially from Clone FB subs - I mean fans.Originally posted by JD720 View PostAnd it took them about 2 seconds to find a replacement.

Wow. I'm not sure what they saw in Messingham. I've talked with him about football strategy and was really unimpressed with what I heard. But, then, what do I know? I'm probably just a "Clone FB sub" (whatever that is).

Re: What changes need to be made?
I wouldn't put too much stock in that. Everyone hates their offensive coordinator when things aren't going well. A lot of them thought Tom Herman sucked when he was there too.Originally posted by Trapped in California View PostWould this be viewed as a positive for NDSU?
